Is there an easy way to get an EntityFactory from a string at runtime without writing custom code? Something like this:

string entityName = "EmployeeEntity";
IEntityFactory2 myFactory = /* some magic with entityName */;
IEntityBase2 myEntity = myFactory.Create();

Also, there is a EntityFactorySelector form in ORMSupportClasses. How can this form be used? I only ever get an empty combobox.

Thanks, Kevin

A user had a similar situation that they solved with a method that returned an EntityCollection filled with the correct entities. http://www.llblgen.com/tinyforum/Messages.aspx?ThreadID=712&HighLight=1 Let us know if this helps.

The entityfactoryselector is used at design time in vs.net, thus can't be used outside it.

You also might want to look at the Activator class in .NET by passing in a Type object created from the string "<entityname>Factory"
